Looking for insight on rear lift - Toyota 4Runner Forum

I have read through threads debating the 891 OME coils without weight. On the day to day i dont carry weight, but i also dont really drive more than a run to the grocery store. It seems everyone had poor ride stiffness from the 891 coils with 60028 or 60027 shocks. Has anyone tried 60073 soft valving shocks with 891 heavy coils?
Is the ride fine when not loaded?

I'll definately make weight with spare and camping gear loaded for trips so I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about my kidney's taking a hit when all I have is a bag of groceries back there going over parking lot speed bumps.

Buy some 5100’s for the rear and you’re good to go. I have not seen complaints about the 891’s when people run those shocks. Maybe there are some out there, but all the research I have done points to that combo as the winning formula.

5100's with the 906 and I wouldn't say they are harsh. 906 has almost the same spring rate at the 891. For comparison I had moog tall springs before and they were way too soft, lots of roll going around corners.

906 spring rate = 220lbf/in
891 spring rate = 210lbf/in
